‘Twas the day after Christmas
I was alone in my house
Not a creature was stirring
Not even a mouse
They were all still sleeping
Tucked tight with lights out
The busy day previous
Had worn them right out
Alone with my coffee pot
I sat and scanned FABO forum
Looking through this that and whatnot
The peace was just awesome
That’s when it started again
I heard a small clatter
I knew it was over
The silence didn’t matter
The family was rising
The animals needed out
Though it was not surprising
I knew there was no doubt
Boxing Day was here
And as you’d presume
With grandkids all near
Toys and noise would resume
The quiet was nice
The silence was golden
But reality is
It’s the kids I love holdin’
So here we go again
A day full of fun
Peace and quiet has ended
Merry Christmas everyone
